we won't see a price drop as PS3 is doing quite well

i reckon SONY won't drop price unless 360's current sales continure after september

A drop on the entry level could make sense though, besides improving sales, because bundling Move with the high end model for just $350 makes the price difference awkwardly low, the high end bundle offers so much more for so little more that it makes both the entry level PS3 and the Move Starter Kit look priced too high.

sure it would make sense,heck a price cut always makes sense and improves sales

they can bundle move even for $299 without loss or very little one but they won't as their sales are going strong.they can also remove the DS3 and bundle MOVE for $250 with a little loss as MOVE doesn't cost that much

they can also price MOVE standalone budle low

 

but everything poses only one questions do they need to?

i say not that much.

they still might if 360 sales continue and PS3 sales are affected by it

I suggested ONLY a drop in the 160GB entry level in fact: $350 for the 320GB plus Move bundle is even better than my best hypotheses, I imagined a 160GB plus Move for $330, but for this very reason, 320GB bundle priced very low, 160GB for $299 looks too high and makes the Move Starter Kit look too expensive too at $99. If they drop even only $30 from 160GB price, they DON'T need to drop anything else: 320GB bundle keeps on looking very good value and Move Starter Kit too, so their price won't need to be touched, just and only the entry level PS3. Another thing that should be priced lower is not the starter kit, but standalone additional controllers, they should at least offer a Move plus Nunchukalike kit for $49, to make a complete 2 players solution (Starter Kit plus additional Move and Nunchukalike) competitive with Kinect.

yes but do they need it for 160gb one?

AND 320GB IS $399

ABT being competitive to Kinect,they already are with higher level games and and lower started edition.a normal consumer doesn't really think of multiplayer when first buying it.

if they are reaching their 15m projection and kinect and 360 sales are not high and affecting them then they just don't need to cut price and atm they look to be in a very good position
